Although our strikers haven't been prolific between maeda and khun we must have the guts of 30 goals.

Midfielders also need to step up with more goals.
09 Jan 2025 14:17:39
Midfield and wingers need to provide a better service to the strikers!

Think last night there was plenty of balls across the box (especially first half) that needed finished.

There was a couple of decent balls across the box but most of them were straight to opposition players, we have to do better. Any striker in the world would struggle to hit 20 goals a season the way we play.
09 Jan 2025 15:39:55
The problem with our style of play is that it is one dimensional and predictable and everyone knows what we will do. We need to mix it up a bit.

There is a responsibility for striker and others to get on the end of crosses and pull backs . Martin O’Neil who knew a bit about football, often quoted Brian Clough who was a renown manager . BC told him as a wide player it was his job to get the ball into box and it was the striker’s job to get on the end of it .
We are fortunate that our wingers regularly score important goals for us, our strikers are both a little behind target but a couple of games with 2/ 3 goals between them would give them confidence and I think get them back scoring again . Centre midfield started the season scoring regularly and hopefully they would regain their touch . Over-all after 21 SPL games played we have 57 goals scored, 20 more than the SFA’s favourite team, so we really haven’t got a major problem scoring. let's hope we keep it like that.

Idah never got one chance.

You weren’t playing Mally.

Brian Clough was different gravy.
I love listening to MON particularly talking about his days at Forrest.
Gaining promotion to the then 1st Division followed by x2 European Cups ?.

Our strikers lack of goals is nothing to do with confidence, it’s down to lack of opportunities provided to them! The reason for highlighting their misses is down to the few chances created for them in most games. Maybe the modern game has changed the perspective, but down the years I can remember all Celtic strikers missing plenty but the big difference was the number of opportunities they had per game. Basically a percentage thing. IF we don’t supply them they can’t do their thing.

Nottingham Forest must be the only club to have won the European Cup more times than the League title.
( 2-1 )
They entered as reigning European Cup Champions and I’m sure they beat Liverpool the English Champions on their way to a consecutive European Cup.
They got knocked out in the 1st round going for a hat trick of European cups.

Maeda's goal showed the limitations of Idah, he just isn't sharp enough or just doesn't have the ability to be a top class striker.
09 Jan 2025 23:23:33
If him and Kyogo keep having to come deeper to get a touch on the ball they can’t be on the end of all that’s coming into the box.
09 Jan 2025 23:41:01
Sorry, used a bad word. The statement was about the F all that’s coming into the box.
